This is a very simple, top down shawl, that is shaped like a half hexagon, or in other words, Three Triangles. It’s a fabulous stash buster, and you can use any yarn, in any weight, with any gauge that makes you happy. Made in one solid color, it’s a great guy’s shawl; made with stripes or a self-striping yarn, it’s more suited for a woman.

Included in the pattern are some options for getting you started in customizing this shawl to make it your own.

There are also two versions for you to download: a one page file with no photo (and not much spacing, either), great for saving paper & ink and good for sharing with your charity groups, and a two page, “prettier” version, complete with photo & the text spread out a bit more for easier reading.

I ask that if you like this shawl pattern, you either make a shawl for charity or donate money to the Alzheimer’s Society of America.

Permission is also granted for teachers to use this pattern in a classroom setting as long as all students are asked to please donate a shawl to charity.
